FAQs:

How long is my prescription or its refills valid if I leave my current doctor?

While pharmacists must offer to counsel you on all new prescriptions, they often counsel you about refilled prescriptions only when there's a notable change, such as an alteration to the medication's appearance or packaging. If you should have a question or concern about your refilled prescription, always feel free to ask your pharmacist for advice or explanations.

How do I dispose of my personal prescription medication or medical equipment?
